In order to embed videos from youtube, you can either just copy the link and paste it into your post, and it will work with no issues, or copy the iframe code:
To make this work, we need the code, if not we will have nothig to work with, nothing to alter.
So please embed your preferred videos by using the iframe code.
The next step is, of course, to alter this code. You have to be in your 'text' mode in your editor, not in 'visual'. You can sellect in the top right side of the WP editor. This is simple, here's how to do it:
This is original code:
And a bit of zoom:
And here it is altered:
Zoomed:
What we've done? We added src="" data- right before src="whateveryoutubelink"
Do it exactly, this is a code! You see, it is a space before src="" and a space between src="" and data-
Leaving src="" empty, as you see is nothing between """ (before altering was the youtube link), will erase the 'must' for video to load in the same time with the page ;)
This is all, insert the code from previous page in the theme footer and, after that, alter the code as showing above :)
Let's go to the next page for results ...
I am not exactly sure where, though I believe the answer is in this statement "You’ll want to add this to a .js file and enqueue it along with the rest of your Javascript files in functions.php."
But a screenshot on this may help the less tech-savvy people on knowing where to add the codes.
